《It Started with Slime》Chapter 5 - Second Evolution
Advertisement
For the next few days, it trained up its legs and wings, without evolving or doing anything else. It continued to gain mass with Photosynthesis, of course, but other than that it did nothing else. It kept its Eyes open and continued to work and it slowly regained its health and mana to full. Stamina was another issue as it drained away while using Wings of the Fly and Legs of the Fly, but it did gain some useful experience with both. It could not use Absorb or Digest while it was on the move but would work on that later. For now, it was more focused on getting to a stage where it could choose one of its other evolutions.
Through Digest and Photosynthesis, you have gained 79.3g of Weight; your Weight has increased to 159.82g, your Volume has grown to 79.91cm3!

Yes / No?
Yes!
It had 3 options to choose from now, so the last week had been worth it. It could pick something better than just Slime. It wanted to be more.

It looked again at the options: Slime would just increase its stats but nothing much else would change. Aerial Mini Slime was great in the sense that it could enjoy a little of what flight had to offer with its Wings of the Fly ability. The blob was enjoying flying immensely. The sensation of the air passing over its slime body made it tingle and it didn’t want to give up that feeling.
Over the last few days combining flying and walking, it had gradually made its way up to the canopy of the forest. It was almost 400m above the ground now, and when it finally crested the top of the trees, it was able to see where it was and get a better feel for what its surroundings were like. Granted, it didn't see much even after training its eyesight. It was still only able to make out about 7m in front of it sharply before the landscape became a black and white blur.
The trees below were a black carpet and the sky above a white blanket. So, not much to see, but compared to no eyesight at all it was great. It did hope that things would get better with time since it enjoyed seeing and wanted to be able to see even more of its environment. After spending a week alive and conscious in the world, it wanted to know more, and it had the curiosity of a newborn in that regard.
It was distracted by the new sights. For it to be able to explore more and understand more of the world around it, it would need to choose either the Mini Aerial Slime or Fly evolutions. It didn’t know what the Tiers meant but assumed that higher was better. It also didn't like the fact that the Fly option would not only restrict some of its abilities but also make it weaker, at least in the short term. Maybe it would be able to choose Fly later since it was a higher tier? The Mini Slime didn't know if that would be a possibility of course, but the options from the previous evolution were available now, even if in a different form…it made some sense. It would have to take the chance if it went down that path….
You have chosen Tier 2 - Mini Aerial Slime; you are now Mini Aerial Slime Level 1!
Your flight capability has been more fully integrated with your body; you will be able to fly more easily and intuitively and you will gain more experience with each level in this class. Since you are still a Tier 2 entity your experience required to level up will continue to increase. Experience requirements are reset when you evolve into a higher tier being.
You have gained the Ranged Stat Accuracy, each point of Accuracy gives you 2% better aim when attacking and 2% faster reload for ranged weapons; your Accuracy is currently 2.
You have gained the Ranged Stat Reaction, each point of Reaction gives you faster reaction times against external stimuli; your Reaction is currently 2.
+1 Intellect, +2 Speed, +2 Perception, +15HP, +10SP +3SP Regen
All HP, MP, and SP have been restored on Evolution!
You have Evolved twice since the beginning of your existence and do not yet have a name, do you wish to choose a name for yourself?
Resh!
It was not a conscious thought…more of a noise in its mind; the system took it as a name and so…
CONGRATULATIONS! You have chosen the name, Resh! You will now be known as Resh!

Dear Spellbook (Link to rewrite in blurb)
A rewrite of this story has been posted here: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/49881/dear-spellbook-a-fantasy-time-loop-rewrite Live. Study. Repeat. Tal is a sorcerer in a world where they are killed on sight, traveling with a man charged with carrying out the task. Every night Tal must pretend to study his spellbook to maintain his disguise as a Wizard’s Apprentice. If his disguise slips and his charade is uncovered, it will be his death. Seeking answers to mysteries that arose after his parent’s murder, Tal must accept any allies, no matter the risks, to uncover his family’s secret. But when he wakes up one morning to find himself trapped repeating the same day, he has to overcome his challenges all on his own. This story is an adaptation of a D&D campaign I ran but never was able to complete. I tried to capture the feel of a table-top RPG session —tropes and humor— without relying on the mechanics. This is not a litRPG or gamelit story and no D&D mechanics or system appear in the game. It follows one member of an adventuring party as he deals with the problems with that arise from being an adventurer. Namely, getting roped into adventures. The story has a time loop element, but will eventually move past that. This story explores the magic systems, the history, and the lore of the world through the lens of Tal's entries in his Spellbook and interludes from other written works in the world. New entries on Mondays Credit to JackOfHearts for the cover.

B's Grand Adventure
It has been two hundred years since the first contact with aliens from the planet Proxima Centauri. It has been about one hundred and ninety-eight since the Centurians and humans accidentally connected their computer systems together. That same year Centurian virus took over almost all of humanity's computers. This was right about the time a huge solar flare knocked out all communication on Earth. Some time between then and now secrets were revealed, like secret societies, where the nukes were being hidden, and, most importantly, that there were Fae, magic beings, living among humanity all this time. The Proxima Centurians eventually came to the now weakened Earth to 'check on' humanity about fifty years ago. Some say they are here to colonize what's left of the city-states and raiders alike. But now we focus on a young man who has earned the ire of a Centurian colony and a powerful half-Fae named Jormungrand. This young man has chosen the name for himself as B.
